Where are Marbella police? Electric scooter filmed at 100 km/h on A-7

A video has surfaced on social media showing an electric scooter being ridden at an alarming speed of around 100 km/h on the A-7 motorway near Marbella, raising questions about the presence and responsiveness of Marbella police. The footage, shared by Fuengirolasequeja, appears to violate several Spanish traffic rules, as electric scooters, or personal mobility vehicles (VMPs), are legally restricted to a maximum design speed of 25 km/h and are prohibited from using motorways.

Additionally, the use of helmets is now mandatory for scooter riders in Spain, with non-compliance facing a fine of up to €200. Despite these regulations, the incident highlights a persistent issue of traffic law violations on the Marbella section of the A-7, with similar incidents reported in the past. The lack of visible police presence on the motorway has left social media users questioning the enforcement of traffic laws in the area and the effectiveness of Marbella police in addressing such violations.
